Hi Mohamed, The use of these message types is protocol-specific. To understand why they are being used you'll have to read the protocol .sm files. There you'll see that each message which is sent has a message type specified (see the enqueue functions in SLICC). There is also a brief description of each message type in the <protocol>_msg.sm file.
